Mouse App

[fatyank]

I'm looking for a mouse app that will allow me to control apps on my Note Pro 12.2 tablet from my Note 4 phone. I'm mainly interested in using it for PowerPoint presentations. I have a Samsung SMouse that works fine but I need to be farther away from my tablet when doing group presentations. The apps in the Play Store all seem to work just on PCs. I've posted on Note 4 forum also.

Maybe a wireless mouse? You should be able to get a micro USB to USB adapter and see if it works?

I do have the SMouse from Samsung. It is bluetooth and works fine but I need to be able to stand away from my tablet. I can kind of do what I want with the mouse but it's awkward, because I need a flat surface. I use a Pico projector so a remote and USB receiver won't work. I need an app that can be run by bluetooth from my Note 4

Bluetooth has a limited range. How far do you need to stand from your tablet? 50 feet may be too far away. I know that a new bluetooth spec is being reviewed that allows longer range but that is in the future.

I'm looking at about 20 feet max. I need to see my screen (tablet) and be able to speak with my audience. My Pico projector is connected by cable so a remote with USB receiver won't work. I did finally find an app in Play Store that does what I want but could not get it to connect phone with tablet (Bluetooth). As I said the SMouse works but I need to be standing to speak with my audience so constantly bending down to move the mouse wouldn't be good. If I'm doing a presentation for just 3 or 4 people, the mouse works great because we'd be sitting at a small table.
